Our older but trusty 1984 Toyota Van, sometimes referred to as the Silver Bullet, made several trips between Eugene and Hansville, a six hour drive. Brett and Kasey moved out of Hansville with the help of her parents and then we met the U-Haul truck and family in Vancouver to help them move in.
Then Nancy and I headed north on a Sunday late in September, to prepare for our big shipment to be delivered on Tuesday. For two days we were busy making sure all was ready for the delivery. We were shocked Tuesday morning when a huge 18 wheel semi arrived with our stuff. It was too big to get in the driveway so the six movers had to use hand trucks to get from the street to the house. They worked until after 8 PM but left us with beds set up and furniture in place, but lots of boxes of stuff that needed to be unpacked! Nancy and I keep busy unpacking and thinking about how we accumulated so much stuff! In the first couple of years after we were married we could put all we owned in a car and moved across country; now it takes a semi truck!…
